Description

This invention relates to a roll call system and a roll call method used for roll calls by transportation companies and the like. In the transportation industry, driver roll calls are mandatory for safety management purposes. Types of roll calls include pre-work roll calls conducted before work, post-work roll calls conducted after work, and intermediate roll calls conducted during trips involving overnight stays (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In recent years, automated roll calls, where roll calls are conducted automatically by a system rather than by a dispatch manager, are becoming increasingly common. Currently, automated roll calls are conducted using terminals prepared by each transportation company. Therefore, for example, using automated roll calls for overnight trips requires the provision of measuring devices such as alcohol detectors, thermometers, and blood pressure monitors in the vehicles and at the accommodation, making implementation difficult. Furthermore, automated roll calls require communication between the roll call equipment and the server, but communication failures or server downtime can prevent roll calls from being conducted. For example, if such a situation occurs during pre-shift or mid-shift roll calls, drivers will be unable to perform their scheduled duties, causing significant disruption. The above is just one example, and there is still room for various improvements regarding automated roll call.

Several embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. Each embodiment described below discloses a roll call system and a roll call method using said system for conducting roll calls for drivers belonging to a transportation company. A freight transport company is an example of a transportation company. However, the roll call system and roll call method disclosed in this embodiment can also be used for drivers belonging to a passenger transport company. [First Embodiment] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the roll call system CS according to the first embodiment. The roll call system CS includes a plurality of roll call terminals 1, a roll call server 2, and a plurality of operator systems TS. The plurality of operator systems TS may be provided for each transportation company, or at least some of them may be owned by the same transportation company. The roll call terminal 1 performs at least a portion of the automated roll call processing for drivers belonging to each transportation company. The automated roll call processing includes pre-work roll calls, post-work roll calls, and equivalent intermediate roll calls. For example, each of the multiple roll call terminals 1 may be installed at multiple (unspecified) locations. The installation locations of each roll call terminal 1 are expected to be different from the transportation company's offices. Specific examples of installation locations for the roll call terminals 1 in this case include, but are not limited to, service areas, parking areas, truck stations, convenience stores, ferries, gas stations, and roadside rest areas. Each roll call terminal 1 and the roll call server 2 are connected via a communication network such as the Internet. The roll call server 2 may be a cloud server. In this case, a portion of the automated roll call processing using the roll call terminal 1 may be performe
